Live updates: Congress certifies Trump's election victory

Congress on Monday formally certified President-elect Trump's 2024 election victory.

Vice President Harris oversaw the process, affirming Trump’s victory as well as her decisive defeat to him after a whirlwind run for commander in chief. It took less than 45 minutes.

Monday also marks four years since rioters stormed the Capitol in an effort to overturn Trump's 2020 election loss, ultimately resulting in the death of several police officers.

"And we should commit to remembering Jan. 6, 2021, every year," President Biden wrote Monday in an op-ed for The Washington Post. "To remember it as a day when our democracy was put to the test and prevailed. To remember that democracy — even in America — is never guaranteed."

In other news on Capitol Hill, lawmakers are contending with how to best move Trump's ambitious agenda after he declared over the weekend that he only wanted one reconciliation package.
